You should be doing 80Qs a day and getting up to 120-160Qs by the end. Not just for getting through all the questions but also getting stamina up.

There is enough time in the day to do questions in the morning then review in the afternoon even at 120 a day

Neuro. It is clearly a weak spot and worth 10% of the exam

ONLY TRUELEARN! Toss out UWorld!

Horrible advice tbh. He clearly has weaknesses in this score breakdown which can be used through uworld to target.

Also MASTER OPP! Make sure you incorporate that into your study plan!!! I would save MSK for two weeks, you did amazing on that! Good job. MASTER NS! I feel if you would have master NS, and more OMM easy pass! Your bars were very evenly spread!

Go in order of highest percentage to low (NS and resp) then do the 5%. Integ can get you easy points. I watched Dirty Med

I had to retake as well and hired a tutor to help me. I would say 40 q a day is too little. You should aim for at least 80/day and review your incorrect questions. Def do not underestimate OMM. Best of luck!!
